Chipped your shower tray? Need a professional repair? Let us take the stress out of your shower tray chip repair by handling it swiftly and expertly so you can continue your day.

When a chip appears in your shower tray, it’s typically caused by something impacting the tray, like an object falling or striking it. Most shower trays are made of acrylic or acrylic-capped stone resin, which is lightweight and easy to shape, but also brittle. This means it’s vulnerable to chipping or cracking from sharp impacts. Once damaged, it’s essential to repair the tray immediately to prevent further issues. We’re available to help you in Hitchin with your shower tray chip repair. Call today for more details and a free quote.

We have been repairing shower trays for many years in and around Hitchin, so you can be sure you'll receive first-class service from us.

If you replace your shower tray, it can be a costly and lengthy process. However, we can repair it in a fraction of the time, helping you save time and money.

Hitchin Shower Tray Chip Repair Expert Process

Shower trays come in various materials and textures, with many being made of acrylic or acrylic-capped stone resin, a combination known for its durability. The downside is that these materials can be prone to damage due to their hard but brittle surface. Scratches are also common and can trap moisture, leading to mildew and mould. Therefore, it’s important to repair chips, scratches, and cracks quickly to restore the surface’s waterproof properties.

For shower trays with extensive damage like multiple chips, scratches, or an overall deteriorated surface, we recommend resurfacing the whole tray. This takes a little more time than a simple chip repair, but we’ll complete the job in one visit. Once resurfaced, your shower tray will look brand new, and we will fill in cracks and holes during the process.

Repairing chips in a shower tray requires precise colour matching of the new enamel paint to your existing tray. Our skilled technicians use special tinters to blend the enamel until it matches the exact shade of your tray. Although most trays are white, there are many variations of white, and the age, usage, and discolouration of the tray will all impact the shade. This is why standard white enamel paint won’t work for repairs, as it won’t match the colour of your shower tray.

The key difference between our repairs and DIY Repair Kits is the quality of materials. We use professional grade materials from trusted commercial traders, ensuring a lasting and expert repair every time. DIY Repair Kits, however, contain lower quality materials that will not last. The provided tinters are challenging to match accurately. For the best results, we recommend leaving your hard surface repairs to the professionals!

Step-by-step procedure for sink chip repair:

1. We'll take a look at the damage and provide you with your free quote to repair it.

2. The first step in your repair is applying a layer of our specialised bonder to the shower tray.

3. The damage will then be filled in to create a smooth, even surface.

4. A second layer of bonder is applied over the filler to ensure proper adhesion.

5. The technician will now match the enamel paint to your shower tray's surface and apply it using a fine spray gun.

6. Give your shower tray repair 24 hours to dry and fully cure.

7. Ta da! Your shower tray is ready to be used again!

Will the repair of a shower tray chip be undetectable?

Bathroom shower tray chip damage repair Hitchin

After a shower tray chip repair, the original damage should generally be undetectable during regular use. But if you shine a flashlight and scrutinize the area, you might still spot the repair. This represents the highest standard of repair. For an invisible repair, resurfacing the entire shower tray would be your best option.

Our repairs will last for many years, and we take great pride in our work, ensuring you are completely satisfied with your repair. We’ve been serving Hitchin for many years and have numerous happy customers who continue to recommend us regularly. One of the most important factors in creating a high-quality repair is achieving a perfect colour match to the original surface, which is something we have mastered at Surface Doctor Hitchin. If you choose to try out a DIY Repair Kit, be warned that the repair quality won’t come close to what we can achieve. DIY kits can only provide repairs that may last a few months and are often hard to colour match, which can lead to discolouration. With a professional repair, you won’t need to worry about any of this. We handle the repair process, so you can relax and enjoy the results.

How long does it take?

Small chip repairs typically take about 1-2 hours. More extensive damage may take up to 3 hours. If you're opting for shower tray resurfacing, this will take around 4-5 hours to finish.

I had a shower tray chip repair done and I'm so glad I went with Surface Doctor Hitchin. From the first call to the repair, the service was top-notch. I was even given helpful aftercare advice which I’ll definitely follow! Thanks for the fantastic service.

You repaired a small chip in my shower tray so well that I can’t even tell where it was anymore! Now my shower tray looks brand new! I’m thrilled with the repair.
JK - Hitchin, Hertfordshire
When our plumber accidentally chipped our brand new shower tray by resting his metal tools in it, we were upset. We initially wanted him to replace it, but he suggested trying a chip repair first. I was absolutely impressed with the repair you did—I can't tell where the damage was anymore! I’m so happy with the results, and it was definitely faster than replacing the entire tray.
GT - Hitchin, Hertfordshire
My shower tray had a nasty chip that was turning brown, but you did an excellent repair and made it look brand new again. The technician mentioned the chip was becoming damp, so it was great we didn’t wait any longer to repair it.
